UPPER THREADING

Using the Twin Needle Mode

The twin needle can only be used for patterns that
show after being selected. Before you select a
stitch pattern, make sure the stitch can be sewn in
the twin needle mode (refer to the "STITCH
SETTING CHART" on page S-68).
CAUTION
• Twin needle (part code X59296-151) is
recommended for this machine. Contact your
authorized retailer for replacement needles
(size 2.0/11 is recommended).
• Be sure to set the twin needle mode when
using the twin needle. Using the twin needle
while the machine is in single needle mode
could cause the needle to break, resulting in
damage.
• Do not sew with bent needles. The needle
could break and cause injury.
• When using the twin needle, it is
recommended to use presser foot "J".
• When the twin needle is used, bunched
stitches may occur depending on the types of
fabric and thread that are used.
Use monogramming foot "N" for decorative
stitches.
• Before changing the needle or threading the
machine, be sure to press
screen to lock all keys and buttons, otherwise
